Initiatives

From the Blog

Last week I had the pleasure of tagging along with Public Humanities Community Fellow Holly Ewald to document and help facilitate her most recent project: the 2015 UPP Arts Teachers Workshop. The day and a half long program was held in the cheerfully decorated library of the Reservoir Avenue School and attended by some 15 teachers, artists, researchers and scientists with a wide variety of ages, talents and experience.

The Center coordinates a growing number of projects that advance crossdisciplinary research, innovative forms of public presentation, collaboration and engagement. These initiatives involve Center staff, undergraduate and graduate students, faculty from Brown University, and community organizations.

in 2007, Public Humanities students partnered with StoryCorps to collect Rhode Islanders' stories.
